Modeling
Mathematical models and computer simulations provide a great way to describe the function and operation of Parts and Devices. Synthetic Biology is an engineering discipline, and part of engineering is simulation and modeling to determine the behavior of your design before you build it. Designing and simulating can be iterated many times in a computer before moving to the lab.
Please note you can compete for both the Gold Medal criterion #3 and the Best Model prize with this page.
Gold Medal Criterion #3
Use modeling to gain insight into how your project works or should be implemented. Explain your model's assumptions, data, parameters, and results in a way that anyone could understand.
Please see the 2021 Medals Page for more information.
Best Model Special Prize
Models and computer simulations provide a great way to describe the functioning and operation of BioBrick Parts and Devices. Synthetic biology is an engineering discipline and part of engineering is simulation and modeling to determine system behavior before building your design. Designing and simulating can be iterated many times in a computer before moving to the lab. This award is for teams who build a model of their system and use it to inform system design or simulate expected behavior before or in conjunction with experiments in the wetlab.
To compete for the Best Model prize, please describe your work on this page and also fill out the description on the judging form.
